OVERTONES, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: So softly sang a bird
Last Line: What thrilled it yesterday.
Subject(s): Birds


So softly sang a bird,
So gently flowed the stream,
The overtone I heard
Perchance was but a dream.

One spake so sweet and low,
And went so soon away,
My heart will never know
What thrilled it yesterday.
